Location services help - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

Hello everyone,
For some reason, after a rom flash recently, my location access doesn't work on Google maps.
I'm running tasks 4/12b, but the problem started a few versions ago.
I've gone to settings>location access and also the in app settings
Anyone point me in a different direction?
"please enable Google Apps location access"

when was the last time you did a full wipe before installing a release? if you've been dirty flashing the updates, this may be your issue.

Probably a couple flashes ago.
Guess that should always be my first bet...

Market apps nor showing up as installed.

I'm running CM7 and all my apps are only listed as free and purchased. They all work fine and are in app drawer but im not getting update notifications because the market thinks they are not installed. I have went to settings>manage apps>market and the only option is to uninstall updates, cache and data are greyed out.
I have tried downloading them again and they will download and install then show as installed but within a few hours revert back to saying free or purchased. Anybody else have this happen or know of a fix?

Sounds like an auto restore problem...... try uninstalling all of them and then reinstall..... plus go into privacy and turn of the back up my data with Google option and see if that works

.gapps constantly crashing

So when I am just doing whatever, my phone locks up and a message saying (somgthing).gapps has either stopped working or has crashed. It happens typically once a day. I can be on Facebook, or the Google play store and when I tap a button, that happens. Any idea? I am stock ROM, but rooted. I'm assuming you guys will need more info, I'm just not sure what to say that could help.

More info is definitely needed.
1.) What ROM and Kernel are you using?
2.) Have you done any modifications to the said ROM or kernel?
3.) What gapps package are you using?
Try clearing data for Google framework

If you have CWM installed try fixing permissions.
Go into settings
Accounts and sync
Find your Google account
Turn off Internet sync
Give it a try it worked for me!

This. Try Google first, there are many threads on this already. Internet sync worked for me so try that before you start clearing all sorts of data like me lol

I'll give that a shot and see if it crashes anymore. What does that disable? Chrome syncing I'm assuming? I guess just the tabs?

Thank you! Any idea what that even does? Since I disabled Internet sync I haven't had the .gapps crash once!

Unknown error code during app install??

Just what the title says. I'm trying to install setcpu and I keep getting this error. Unknown error code during app install 24. Yes, I'm rooted. Running aeonfluxx with deviants newest kernel. I've been having this issue since I tried an aokp Rom and I have no clue what is causing this or what direction to go. Searching turned up nothing and I'd really like be able to set my cpu parameters for battery purposes and what not. Any help? I'd rather not format everything if at all possible, that's my last option.

Try going to SETTINGS, APPLICATIONS MANAGER (APP MANAGER or something like that depending on your ROM), Scroll to ALL, then find GOOGLE PLAY STORE, UNINSTALL UPDATES. Then open up the Play Store and accept. Now try getting SetCPU

settings -> applications -> manage applications (go to "all") -> google play store -> clear data/cache. go into the market, setup account and give it another try

Google now no longer does the following:

So for a little while now I've noticed Google now is no longer doing the things it use to:
1. It use to notify me how many minutes home is from my current location. It no longer does.
2. It use to notify me how many minutes an appointment was and when I should leave to be on time. It no longer does
3. Listen to/play <song title> use to play music on my device or YouTube. This no longer works.
Anybody know why these stopped working?
I'm on stock (Rogers ) ROM with all apps up to date.

Just an idea, maybe you did this but if not its worth a try. Go into settings/application manager/google and hit force stop. Now clear cache, data, and defaults. Now hit uninstall updates, and when done re-install the updates and run app. This should give you a fresh start I believe and this could allow you to set all your options over and give you the origional operation you had before. Im not a pro so I cant guarentee this but it cant hurt, its not a dangerous operation anyway. Good luck!

Google Sync - Not Syncing

Question on the syncing of Playstore Apps.
The past few days I been trying multiple roms (thanks to jlmancuso and chaz187) and after each new rom i flashed, my apps previously downloaded from playstore started automatically loading.
I went to try a new Rom last night and this did not happen. Tried a few new roms and did the same thing. I even flashed the roms I know it loaded on but it didn't.
I liked the fact it loaded automatically without titanium backup.
Why is this happening?
Did I do too many multiple wipes?
Is there a setting that should be selected?
When you load your Google account it asks you if you want to sync and this is already selected as default.
Any ideas on how I can get this feature back?
Thanks!
